So I've been geeking on all these new developments. I wish that free agency was limited to some insane time frame like we're being treated to.

Some things I'm thinking...I love the arms race between the Pats and Jets. Haynesworth will have bugged out Sanchez by the third time they meet. Love.Eagles made some interesting moves this season but Desean Jackson is critical to their success.Matt Moore is not the answer in Miami.I'm eager to see the Lions play as well as the Rams (both playoff teams this year).Week One: Steelers/ Ravens. No better way to get this ball rolling.

I like where the Cowboys are headed and it is unfortunate that their season was derailed last year by Wade Phillips and the Romo injury. They ended on a high note and I feel that they are going to make the NFC East an interesting division again (as if that division lacks interest).

Sorta have Texans love right now. Been big on Schaub for a minute. He just needs someone to do something defensively.

I don't think any team will look like a heap of dogshit more than the Bengals. What a trainwreck. Will Les Wexner buy them, change the name and move 'em up here? Please?

Ravens sign the sickest FB in the NFL. things r going 2 get real nasty for Cleveland & Cincinnati Brownies lookin at another 5 win season can the Bengals even match 4 from last year BALTIMORE & PHILLY in the $UPERBOWL, BABY

I just hope the Steelers don't finish 4th in the division again this year.

Watching the Eagles this year will probably be the most entertaining spectacle in any major sport. And...apparently they're about to get Randy Moss out of retirement? Can you imagine a Moss, Jackson, Maclin receiver trio? We could see the first game where 75 percent of the throws are heaves downfield. I wish Chip Kelly would leave Oregon and coach the Eagles. Can you imagine what he would do with the offensive talent they have? Spread and shred.

I know the 49ers have been everyone's dark horse for like the last 5 years but I really think this year it's legit. They have one of the top 5 running backs in the league and their receiving corps is ridiculously talented (Crabtree, Morgan, Ted Ginn, the recently signed Braylon Edwards, and that freak of nature Vernon Davis at TE). If Alex Smith doesn't spontaneously combust there is no reason why this team can't win their division.

The NFL's 911 remembrance plans next weekend promise to be worth forgetting. I like my violence to be consensual and on the football field. I don't want to see another ad for nationalistic propaganda and non-consensual militaristic violence off of the field disguised as a remembrance. Is Sylvester McMonkey McBean the master of any of these ceremonies?

Seconded. I got my fill of pro-America at Swappers Day this year (and my fill of guns and amish made goods).

Did my fantasy football draft last night and am totally happy with my team. I don't know if I could do it again short of being at a pool or Zoombeezi Bay. Intense and should have been paired with an environment that is less gulag more relaxing.

First off. The Eagles got Steve Smith from the Giants. I know he is hurt, but once he plays, he has quite the hands and will be another great weapon for the eagles. With that said, there is no way Vick will play all 16 games. I see him playing about 10. He will get hurt.

That's going to be the most interesting thing about the NFL this year, the injuries. With the lack of training camp and practice with pads players are going to be going down left and right, hell, they already are. Really pissed my lions lost Leshoure for the season already. Fantasy is going to be won and lost on the waivers this year.

As far as the Niners. Alex Smith. Enough said. Until he stops sucking the team doesn't have a chance. If I were papa bear I'd tank the season and grab my favorite cub from Stanford. Then you could build a dynasty. Also, Frank Gore won't make it half the season. Once you start getting injured and having surgeries as a running back it is just a downward spiral.

There is 12 in my league. And they all know football very well. It's a tough one. But we decided to switch to a keeper league this year so I got to keep Blount in exchange for my 15th round pick since I got him off waivers last year (a steal and a half). I got to keep Williams (TB) for my 14th round pick and Bradford for my 8th. So I was off to a really good start without losing any crucial picks. Then, since it's going to be a crapshoot at running back this year with all the injuries I went heavy on WR's. Plus I'd have some extra for trade. So for RB I went later rounds and got Tim Hightower, Ben Jarvis Green-Ellis, and Reggie Bush. They all should get good reps, especially around the goal line. I took Antonio Gates with my 3rd round because Tight End is gonna be rough this year, especially with more teams starting to play 2 tight ends, and Gates is the best since Peyton's gone and Dallas Clark won't be targeted nearly as much. Lastly, I took Kyle Orton late, I will just play whichever QB is facing an easier Defense. I feel pretty good. The only hard decision is to decide which 3 WR's to play each week. Good luck with your season.

I'm hoping Bey and Avant can contribute somehow. Having Peyton really hurts but I have a backup in Orton and am wrangling Flacco for some of my stacked defensive players.

RBs are Peterson, Blount and Thomas Jones and some other jokers.

I have no clue what I'm doing with fantasy, really. In a league of ten.

You have a good team. Though I am worried about Colston as I never draft any New Orleans or Green Bay players, they just pass to too many different people. If you can pick up Stafford, Bradford, or Freeman, I'd get them all over Flacco. They run too much there for my liking. I'd also think about getting another tight end as Miller doesn't do much. Consider Pettigrew or Moore from Cleveland. I think Moore is going to get a lot of passes thrown his way as a safety net for Colt. I'd start:

QB: OrtonRB1: PetersonRB2: BlountWR1: JohnsonWR2: NicksWR/RB: Colston

Then just play the waivers. If you have any questions, shoot me a pm. As a gambling addict I love fantasy, It's like betting every week on top of actually betting on the games. Won some nice coin by picking GB tonight, that was an easy call though.

You still feeling Jets/ Eagles Super Bowl? I don't know if anyone is going to slow the Packers in the NFC. I really would be stoked on an NFC Championship Saints/ Packers. I'm really suspect of the Jets. I feel the Ravens will be the team to beat in the AFC (supposing the defense shows up every week and Flacco plays average at best).

No shame in that game. The hype looked good on paper. I'm on the same page with you on the Eagles this weekend. The Bills spent their load on the Pats. They'll have a nice season but I would be surprised to see them earn a playoff berth.

Those AFC North QB numbers are par for the course. AFC North could be open to anyone this season. Steelers won't make the playoffs. Injuries and age are hampering any continuation from last season. Browns and Bengals are inconsistent but can knock around some teams in games.

Couple of potential shoot-outs this weekend. I'm really excited especially for the Lions/ Bears and more so for the idea of Suh destroying Cutler.

The Jets win last night is only going to fuck them over hard against the Chargers. How can anyone use a win over Miami as motivation is beyond me. Straight garbage. Chargers come to life this week?

It could be a bird bowl but I'm not entirely sold on the Eagles. Beating a Rex Grossman helmed Redskins isn't that tough. It's more waiting for Grossman to make a mistake which can happen up to four times in a game.

Falcons/ Lions, Texans/ Titans and Bears/ Bucs are all very interesting games. Unfortunately, there are some total stinkers this week.

From a fantasy perspective, I'm pretty happy with my gamble on Bey. Decent numbers and can possibly improve with Palmer in tow.
